An American Girl

On her first day at her new school, Chrissa is seated with three girls who greet her with teasing and tricks. They bully Chrissa in class, on the bus, online, and even at swim club. When the taunting goes too far, Chrissa must find a way to stand strong.

I love this movie. I can't believe how old this movie is. I love this movie because it reminds me when I was in grade 7 and how I was bullied at school by a girl named Amanda she told all the girls to tell me to go away by saying murr murrr my friend sarah said what hu Monica go away . It's sad that her new friends didn't seem like at first. She met her new friend at her new school and they always picked on her when I was in 7th and 8th grade at Notre Dame. I always got bullied too. I was locked in the bathroom by a girl named Dakota who was in grade 7 but i was in grade 8. She told everyone rumours about me and she took all my friends by spreading a rumour about me that isn't true. She always turned off the lights in the girls' bathroom in 7th grade. This other girl that was in my school before never let me hang out with them. Even in 8th grade they didn't let me hang out with them. I have been pushed too. They pushed me in 7th and 8th grade too. Dakota ruined my friends and me at our graduation, but when I got to high school, it was much better.

I think that this is one of the best American Girl movies I EVER watched! It teaches us that we should never be afraid to tell an adult if we're being bullied. Everyone should have a chance to watch this!

Great movie! This movie shows how ugly bullying is but also shows ways in which kids can deal with it and turn these bullies around. Schools should consider showing this to the children, but until that happens, parents should have their kids see it. Very well made movie!
